Guntur
By Our Staff Reporter
GUNTUR, JULY 14. A woman, Sirisha, hailing from Manchikalapudi village near Duggirala in Guntur district, was allegedly harassed by her husband, father-in-law and mother-in-law at their house in Secunderabad by locking up her along with a Doberman dog for failing to bring additional money as dowry. The Guntur district police on Wednesday arrested her husband, Pothala Sasikant, father-in-law, Papa Rao, and mother-in-law, Aditya Lakshmi, from A.S. Rao Nagar in Secunderabad and are interrogating them at Tenali. A case was registered against all the three on a complaint from Sirisha, her grandfather and uncle. The Duggirala Sub-Inspector of Police, Venkata Rao, accompanied the accused. Sirisha, a polytechnic diploma holder, was married to Sasikant in 2002 and a dowry of Rs.5 lakhs was paid with an additional Rs.5 lakhs put in her name in the bank, but not satisfied by this, her husband allegedly made her terminate three-month-old pregnancy at home by making her swallow a tablet. The mother-in-law allegedly subjected her to indignity. Acting on the complaint of the girl, the Guntur Superintendent of Police, Ravi Shankar Ayyannar, contacted the local police there and sent a team to Secunderabad on Tuesday to get the custody of the three persons. Her father-in-law in the police interrogation at Tenali denied having knowledge of any such cruelty meted out to his daughter-in-law. Papa Rao and Aditya Kumari are working in the ECIL in the middle-management earning a handsome amount, while their son had passed only 10th standard and was running two computer centres in Secunderabad, according to the police. The accused would be brought to Guntur on Thursday, Dr. Ayyannar said.
